You’ll learn why buying only what’s blooming at the garden center is one of the biggest DIY mistakes, how annuals should be used as fillers instead of the whole show, and why flowers are only one part of long-term landscape color. Coach covers: How to plan color by season Why foliage, bark, texture, grasses, shrubs, and evergreens matter How to avoid the “two-week wonder” landscape The power of mass plantings and drifts Simple plant examples for spring, summer, late summer, fall, and winter interest How to build a stronger, more professional-looking landscape over time If your yard feels flat after spring, this episode will help you start planning for color that lasts.
